Plz Help! Need Rims To Fit Over Brembos That Aren't Over 7.5" Wide


Recommended Posts

hey i live in rockingham and was wondering if someone could help me out i have 34 gtr rims on my 260rs stagea but they are too wide apparently to pass inspection. The problem is i need rims that are legal but still big enough to fit over the brembo calipers 33gtr wheels would be ideal cause i know im prob not gna get stock 260rs wheels so if anyone can help me out i would be very greatful.

cheers

I have some 17x7 rims that may fit. Two of the four tyres are bald though, so if you're really desperate, you can borrow these and get new tyres. Keep looking around tho, hopefully someone has something more appropriate :unsure:

Try and source a set of 32GTR wheels.

If you have a genuine Stagea 260rs Autech, why can't you pass with the 33GTR wheels, as they are factory fitment. If the inspector doesn't know what Autech is, just explain that Autech is to Nissan, what HSV is to Holden and what FPV is to Ford. Also the tyre placard will show that the car is engineered to have 33GTR wheel.

why are they too wide ?

there is no legal width limitations now according to the traffic act unless they stick out the guards

contact the dpi for conformation coz my gtr is legal with 9" rims on it

according to the ruling a car cannot have a rim width larger then 7" wide, unless it came from factory larger, which in that case they cannot be any larger (ie from factory 8", then no wider is allowed)

nope, that laws abolished in favor of the ADR now, which is as gaz said.

now you can have 1.3x the largest factory option, as long as it doesn't affect track width by more than 25mm, and doesn't protrude from the guards.

so now a car standard rim of 16x8 eg r32gtr can now run 20x10's legally

R33's run 225's stock, so 285's are the largest you can go. :D (made my 275's nice and legal :))

also, the diameter rule is gone too, as long as the rolling diameter doesn't change, you can have whatever you like.

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I highly rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
